Watch the full video on YouTube: https://youtu.be/SF80nv1l32IIn this special episode of Cosmosis, Kelly Chase presents an updated version of her 2025 Contact in the Desert keynote, “UFO Narrative Wars: Weaponized Belief in the Age of Disclosure.” This talk goes beyond the surface of the UFO phenomenon to explore the hidden architecture of secrecy and the sophisticated mechanics of narrative control.Drawing from deep research into intelligence tradecraft, counterintelligence, and disinformation—along with firsthand interactions with members of the intelligence community—Kelly unpacks how belief itself becomes a weapon in the battle for truth. From psychological operations to perception management, from limited hangouts to the “secret onion” model of secrecy, this episode reveals how our search for answers is being actively shaped, steered, and contained.But this isn't a story about villains. It's a call to responsibility. Kelly challenges listeners to reclaim their intellectual sovereignty, resist easy answers, and build discernment in an information landscape designed to confuse. Whether you're a skeptic, experiencer, journalist, or just UFO-curious, this talk will change how you see not just the phenomenon—but the stories we tell about it.Watch Cosmosis: UFOs & A New Reality:https://www.cosmosis.media/Join the Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/cosmosismediaSubscribe to Cosmosis:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Cosmosis.PodcastSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7KnyktIs059pbVdccD020D?si=f3835f36a8cb479dApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/cosmosis-formerly-the-ufo-rabbit-hole/id1595590107Follow CosmosisX: https://x.com/cosmosis_mediaFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/share/12EEyNVPucu/?mibextid=wwXIfrInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/cosmosis.mediaListen to the Cosmosis Soundtrack by Michael Rubino:Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/album/5Xvs2NAHNbKjfW7hWkjqey?si=pJPPgIPsRZGkZjJh19UULQApple Music: https://music.apple.com/us/album/cosmosis-ufos-a-new-reality-season-one-original-soundtrack/1788465117Amazon: https://amazon.com/music/player/albums/B0DS5WY5CB?marketplaceId=ATVPDKIKX0DER&musicTerritory=US&ref=dm_sh_zY05XPzhLhuow5dAgK3g2W9yC TIMESTAMPS02:55 The Role of Intelligence in UFO Narratives07:42 The Complexity of Secrecy and Perception Management16:08 The Secret Onion: Layers of Deception26:35 The Scale and Impact of Institutionalized Secrecy37:31 Heroes, Villains, and Controlled Opposition45:58 The Power of Sincere Belief48:10 The Hero Trap in UFO Narratives50:47 Counterintelligence and Narrative Control54:14 The 80-20 Rule in Disinformation55:49 Limited Hangouts and Perception Management01:00:54 Character Assassination and Narrative Flooding01:08:03 The Weaponization of Belief01:14:50 Reclaiming Intellectual Sovereignty

Jesse Hoogland and Daniel Murfet, founders of Timaeus, introduce their mathematically rigorous approach to AI safety through "developmental interpretability" based on Singular Learning Theory. They explain how neural network loss landscapes are actually complex, jagged surfaces full of "singularities" where models can change internally without affecting external behavior—potentially masking dangerous misalignment. Using their Local Learning Coefficient measure, they've demonstrated the ability to identify critical phase changes during training in models up to 7 billion parameters, offering a complementary approach to mechanistic interpretability. This work aims to move beyond trial-and-error neural network training toward a more principled engineering discipline that could catch safety issues during training rather than after deployment.

Today, I want to talk about something that's really flying under the radar—but it shouldn't be. Imagine being taxed on money you haven't actually earned. Not on rent you've received, not on a capital gain you've banked, but just on the increase in value of an asset you still hold. Sounds crazy, right? Well, that's exactly what the federal government's proposed new tax on superannuation above $3 million aims to do—taxing unrealised capital gains. And while they say it'll only affect a handful of wealthy Australians today, the truth is—because that $3 million cap isn't indexed to inflation—it could very well affect many, many more of us tomorrow. Worse still, it sets a precedent. If the government can tax you on unrealised gains in your super, what's to stop them doing the same outside of super? To your investment property? Your business? Your share portfolio? So today, I've chat with Ken Raiss, Director of Metropole Wealth Advisory and Australia's leading property taxation strategist. We unpack exactly what this policy means, why it matters far more than most people think, and what smart investors should be doing now to prepare. Trust me—this episode isn't just about super. It's about the future of taxation in Australia. And whether you're a seasoned investor or just planning your financial future, you need to understand what's really going on. Takeaways  ·         The proposed tax on superannuation targets unrealised profits. ·         This tax could affect more Australians than initially stated. ·         Investors need to be aware of the implications of taxing unrealised gains. ·         The new tax policy may create a complex valuation process for assets. ·         Property investors may face increased financial burdens as a result of this tax. ·         Seeking expert financial advice is crucial in navigating these changes. ·         The tax system's integrity is at stake with these new policies. ·         Long-term planning is essential for adapting to tax changes. ·         Investors should consider alternative investment strategies outside of superannuation. ·         The proposed tax could set a precedent for future taxation policies.

In this engaging conversation, Iris Goldfeder and Hannah Abad explore the intricate relationship between authenticity and trauma responses. They delve into how protective mechanisms can blur the lines of true personality, the importance of understanding the difference between showing up authentically versus proving oneself, and the journey towards building genuine confidence that is not rooted in fear. The discussion also touches on the complexities of vulnerability and how it can sometimes be performative rather than authentic. Through personal anecdotes and professional insights, they provide valuable takeaways for listeners seeking to navigate their own paths of self-discovery and growth. This conversation delves into the complexities of trauma responses, the need for control in relationships, and the journey towards authenticity. The speakers discuss how individuals often overshare or withdraw as protective mechanisms against being hurt. They emphasize the importance of self-awareness, vulnerability, and taking small steps towards authenticity in both personal and professional contexts. The dialogue highlights the significance of self-love and the necessity of seeking support from others in the journey of personal growth.

With over five decades of clinical experience, Dr. Pavao challenges the idea that adoption is something to be “fixed,” and instead invites us to see it as a lifelong experience that demands truth, openness, and deep emotional care.In this powerful conversation, Dr. Pavao unpacks the psychology of adoption, the concept of ambiguous loss, and the invisible grief so often overlooked. She shares practical guidance for adoptive parents—how to talk about adoption, how to recognize adoption-related trauma, and how to support their children through it without over-pathologizing them. From early separation and normative crises to adoption-competent therapy and systemic change, this episode is filled with wisdom every member of the adoption constellation needs to hear.Important LinksDr. Joyce Maguire PavaoEmail: kinnect@gmail.comThe Family of AdoptionSweet Peach Tree – Clean, natural hair + skin products for melanin-rich families.Use code ROADMAP10 for 10% off your first orderRG Adoption ConsultingTake our FREE quiz: “Am I Ready to Adopt?”Chapters00:00 Celebrating Milestones and Community Engagement03:14 Understanding Adoption: A Lifelong Journey05:48 The Child-Centric Approach in Adoption09:13 Normative Crises in Adoption12:05 The Impact of Early Adoption Experiences14:55 Creating Adoption Competent Therapists18:05 Ambiguous Loss in Adoption20:50 Supporting Children Through Invisible Loss24:01 Indirect Communication Strategies for Parents26:54 Recognizing Trauma in Adopted Children30:06 Understanding Behavioral Responses in Adoptees33:02 The Complexity of Adoption Experiences36:13 Encouraging Open Conversations in Adoption38:57 The Role of Parents in Navigating Adoption Challenges41:58 Empowering Adoptees to Share Their Stories46:31 Navigating Family Dynamics in Adoption49:41 The Vulnerability of Pre-Adoptive Parents55:29 The Need for Honest Conversations in Adoption57:40 Challenges in the Adoption System01:02:33 The Importance of Community in Healing01:10:31 Therapeutic Approaches for Adoptive Families01:12:32 Understanding Healing vs. Fixing01:16:29 Building Connections and Community01:23:59 Embracing the Truth of AdoptionTune in to The Adoption Roadmap Podcast every Wednesday and Friday mornings.

How do you balance fraud protection with customer experience when every security measure potentially adds friction to your users' journey?Join hosts Chuck Moxley and Nick Paladino as they talk with Tutu Adenle, a fraud prevention and customer experience expert who has navigated complex challenges at companies like Twitter, American Express, and Eventbrite. Tutu shares eye-opening insights about the sophisticated ways bad actors exploit marketplaces, from testing stolen credit cards to account takeovers, and explains why customers are now grateful for fraud alerts rather than annoyed by them.Tutu also reveals how she tackled content moderation on a global scale at Twitter, where moderating human behavior required understanding cultural nuances across different countries and regions. She discusses the delicate balance of implementing fraud detection tools that protect customers while maintaining a smooth user experience, and explains why building frictionless experiences requires understanding human behavior and constantly monitoring customer service data to know when you've gone too far.Main Takeaways from this episode:Embrace protective friction — Well-placed fraud prevention measures actually build customer loyalty when customers understand they're being protected, as evidenced by positive reactions to banking fraud alerts.Map friction strategically — Place fraud detection at critical points in the customer journey rather than throughout the entire experience, understanding where security is essential versus where it impedes legitimate users.Monitor customer service data religiously — Contact center volume and categories are your best early warning system for when friction has crossed from protective to frustrating, since customers will always tell you when something isn't working.Want more tips and strategies to create frictionless user experiences?

Visit us at shapedbydog.com    Not seeing results in dog training? I'm breaking down why that happens and how layering your dog's learning is the key to creating real-world success. We often believe our dogs are “trained” when things look great in controlled settings but when connection disappears, distractions take over, or confidence fades in new environments, it's a sign that a layer of learning is missing. I'll walk you through how the layers of the 5C Pyramid build lasting reliability and focus, a personal story from my own training, and how shaping behavior through intentional layers leads to long-term success in agility, sports, and everyday life.   In this episode, you'll hear:   • Why your dog might be great in training games but struggle in real-world situations. • How building intentional layers in training leads to real-world success with your dog • The concept of “real world success” and how it evolves as your relationship with your dog grows. • A deep dive into the 5 Cs of dog training: Connection, Clarity, Confidence, Challenge, and Complexity. • The difference between a connected, driven, and detached dog and why that matters. • A powerful question to ask yourself in every training moment to stay aligned with your long-term goals. • How intentional layers build deep connection and lasting success. • A personal story about my own dog and how the layers of learning led us all the way to the world championships.   Crate Games: Get Crate Games Online - https://get.crategames.com/ Learn How To Play ItsYerChoice: Learn how to play the ItsYerChoice (IYC) Game - https://recallers.com/iycsummit-join/   Resources:   1.

In this episode, Dr. Walter Kim, President of the National Association of Evangelicals, joins us to talk about how different parts of the evangelical church are responding to shifts in humanitarian aid and funding, and why these varied responses matter.

For the 50th (?) episode of the Integral Stage's Author Series, Layman meets with novelist and linguistic philosopher, Lisa Maroski, to explore her ideas around the enactive power of language and speech, and her experiments in finding new forms of language to more deeply embody liminal and nondual sensibilities.From the book's description:In Embracing Paradox, Evolving Language: Expressing the Unity and Complexity of Integral Consciousness, L.E. Maroski proposes that humanity is poised on the cusp of a transformation of consciousness that requires not only a shift in values and perspectives, but also a shift in a basic technology we take for granted-language. Because we use language to create social structures and institutions, including education, governance, and our most intimate relationships, the structure of our language contributes to the way we structure those creations. Maroski questions the cultural assumptions that are built into the structure of language-primarily English-and invites the reader to imagine and ultimately to help develop novel structures of language that arise from different assumptions. To do so, she shows how we can draw inspiration from paradoxical topological forms, such as the Möbius strip and Klein bottle, as they embody both unity and duality/multiplicity. By seeing our reality not simply in terms of either/or but also in terms of both (many)/and, perhaps our feelings of fragmentation and the stultifying oppositions that have polarized society can transform into appreciation for the wholeness of all existence.L.E. Maroski blends philosophy, psychology, and science with the spiritual to describe her vision for a new type of language and to provide stepping stones for possible ways to express the paradoxical wholeness of Life. In Embracing Paradox, Evolving Language, her words ring out as a clarion call to visionaries who seek to bring into existence a world of many worlds that works for everybody.Embracing Paradox, Evolving Languagehttps://www.amazon.com/Embracing-Paradox-Evolving-Language-Consciousness/dp/1961334100

Do you feel exhausted? Stressed? Strained? Like everything is a battle and you are wildly swinging swords trying to slay all the dragons? Yeah, striving and struggling exists to wear you out, steal your energy, and tank your vitality – all in the name of productivity, meeting goals, and doing what you "should..." But what if you just... STOPPED STRIVING? What if you are not some unending healing project that requires increasing complexity and systems and strategy? What if you're more like a really fun houseplant that needs simple things like good food, sleep, sunlight, and cuddling? Complexity and creating unsolvable problems mind's way of keeping itself activated, busy, and protected. If you are always moving, you don't have to actually slow down and feel your feelings. Without solid foundations, the castle you're building will crumble. No matter how much plant medicine you guzzle or spiritual self-help books you read. The good news is, going back to basics is simple.Let go of striving and let it be easy. Trust yourself, trust the Universe, and let your energy guide the way!WORK WITH SINCLAIRNEST Group Integration Membership - https://sinclairfleetwood.com/nest1:1 Private Coaching - https://sinclairfleetwood.com/psychedelic-integrationSubscribe to The Visionary Within weekly newsletter - https://mystical-heart-collective.kit.com/5623fed941FREE Ultimate Guide to Healing with Psychedelics: https://mystical-heart-collective.kit.com/ultimate-guideRetreats: https://sinclairfleetwood.com/events

With up to five generations now represented in the workforce, leaders must adapt to evolving expectations—especially from younger employees who prefer empowerment over command-and-control leadership.

On this ID the Future from the archive, host Jonathan Witt speaks to molecular biologist and professor Dustin Van Hofwegen about his research into the engineered complexity in microbial life. Hofwegen shares his research on the famous decades-long E. coli evolution experiment conducted by Richard Lenski, which showed the sudden appearance of an ability to utilize citrate after many generations. However, Van Hofwegen's own experiments demonstrated that this "evolutionary innovation" actually points to the intelligent design built into living systems instead of an undirected process like natural selection.
